Thank you @jwilliambyers for tagging me to answer these questions! It only took me like three weeks and I’m finally ready to massively overshare lmao, so BRACE YOURSELVES I GUESS! Here we go:

Nicknames: i don’t reeeeally go by any nicknames irl- my name is Victoria and with the exception of like, 2 people, pretty much everyone calls me that (other than the weird inside joke type nicknames with my closest friends (in high school I was “existential walrus”, because obviously that makes sense (?!?!?)))

Real name: 👀

Zodiac sign: Aries

Height: 5’7”

Current time: ok so I’ve been writing this post on and off for like a million years and keep changing this answer lmao but as I am posting this it is 11:51pm

Fav musicians: dodie, Orla Gartland, Taylor Swift, Conan Gray, Ben PLATT

Favourite sports team: when I was a kid I would watch all of my hometown hockey team’s games and get very invested every season but I don’t really follow sports much anymore

Other blogs: noooop just this one!

Do I ever get asks: A few times and all of them have made my heart go 🥺🥺🥺🥺 because you guys are too kind and I can’t dEAL with it

How many blogs do I follow: 201

Tumblr crushes: you are all Extremely Neat, but here are a few of y’all that hold a special place in my heart for being especially cool to me :’) @iamleavingthisfandom @jwilliambyers @gangsterscraft

Lucky number: six because when I was six years old my first grade class was in room six and I won a t-shirt (of the previously mentioned hockey team!) because I picked the number six

What I’m wearing right now: a Six the musical (holy shit, coincidence? I think not) t-shirt with a blue flannel shirt on top

Drink of choice: i am a slut for chocolate milk😳 (I’m literally a child?) but I mean usually I just drink water (hydration is cool kids)

Dream car: uhhhhhhhhhh one that drives?

Dream vacation: oh boy so many places but ideally anywhere where I can just be quiet and absorb some peace in nature, maybe in a cottage by an ageless forest with massive trees and squirrels to befriend and a babbling brook next to a blackberry bush brimming with berries that I could tenderly pick and eat with warm custard (wowie the escapist fantasy really jumped out there- can you blame me though?)

Favourite food: oatmeal cookies? (severely underrated. JUST oatmeal, no raisins or chocolate chips or anything. don’t get me wrong they have their place just not in my oatmeal cookie!) also pumpkin pie omg

What languages do I speak: English and French, plus a little German I guess (I have been trying to learn it for almost three years but I’m no where near fluent. I’m working on it though!)

Instruments: I played piano when I was a kid but never got suuuuper good at it because I stopped lessons when I was about 12. I also played clarinet for three years in middle school but stopped in high school because I started taking vocal music instead. If the vocal chords count as an instrument I guess that is my FAVOURITE one- I loved those classes and now I sing in my university’s choir! AND FINALLY I started learning the guitar last summer but I am juuuuuuust a beginner so probably won’t be booking gigs anytime soon

Celebrity crushes: mmmmmmmaya hawke and like, cole sprouse I guess👁👁? those are probably the closest I’ve gotten to celebrity crushes, i mean it’s more like, “oh wow they are neat! I like listening to them talk and watching them act (or whatever they do), and I respect them and what they do and I wish I could be their friend. But then I realize that the reason I want to be this person’s friend is that through listening to and observing them from a distance, I have created this illusion of closeness- while in reality any random person on the street could be just as cool, it’s just so much harder to see that possibility because you haven’t gotten any glimpse into the random stranger’s life and personality. What I’m saying is that it kind of unsettles me that celebrities are so easy for us to latch onto and idolize, simply because so much of them is already out there for us to see. I feel like the media really puts them on this pedestal, when in reality they just people! Idk man, I’m almost certainly over analyzing this and I should have just stuck with saying Maya Hawke is Cool and Pretty Lady and Cole Sprouse is Funny and Artsy Man and I think that is Attractive™️, but now I’ve gone and written this so it’s here to stay

Random fact: this has been sitting in my notes for several weeks (oops) because I DON’T WANT TO HALF ASS THESE QUESTIONS and apparently I would rather write an essay on the sociological basis of celebrity crushes than just answer the questions like a reasonable person. C’est la vie I guess!

Tagging: @iamleavingthisfandom @gangsterscraft only if you want to! and feel free to take three weeks if you need to lmao

Tag game

I was tagged by @lovelylangst

rules: Write 92 truths about yourself then tag 25 people Long ass post.

LAST… [1] drink: Grapefruit juice [2] phone call: my fiance @radioactive-earthshine [3] text message: either my fiance or one of the other people in my class [4] song you listened to:  Novocaine by Fall Out Boy [5] time you cried: Night before last? I know I was laughing.

HAVE YOU EVER… [6] dated someone twice: Yeah, just my fiance. [7] been cheated on: Nope. [8] kissed someone and regretted it: Nah. [9] lost someone special: If you mean family, then yes. Otherwise no. [10] been depressed: Low level, never chronic, and I’ve been able to work through things on my own or with my fiance’s help. [11] gotten drunk and thrown up: I’ve never even been drunk. I can’t stand the smell of alcohol, to say nothing about the taste.

LIST 3 FAVOURITE COLORS: [12] Greens (usually a forest or jungle green is at the top) [13] Reds (the brighter the red is the more it has to be in combination with other colors) [14] Black, gold, or brown (kind of a toss-up for me)

IN THE LAST YEAR HAVE YOU… [15] made new friends: Absolutely. [16] fallen out of love: No. [17] laughed until you cried: Hell yes. See my earlier point about crying. [18] found out someone was talking about you: Yup. I tend to leave an impression. [19] met someone who changed you: Not within the last year, no. Well no wait, I lied-- I had an awful teacher at this time of year last year who was so terrible that she was the perfect example to me of what not to do as a teacher. [20] found out who your true friends are: Nope. I’m pretty close with all of my friends and I’m the sort of person who doesn’t put up with ‘fair weather friends’. [21] kissed someone on your facebook list: My fiance.

GENERAL… [22] how many of your facebook friends do you know in real life: Uh, most of them? I’m not on facebook all that much anymore, but most of them I’ve at least met face to face. [23] do you have any pets: My adorable ball-of-fluff cat known as Rainy Mazama. [24] do you want to change your name: lol Already did. It was a pain in the ass and I wouldn’t want to do it again. And I still occasionally get mail and things with my birth name. smh [25] what did you do for your last birthday: Went to lunch with my fiance, my mom, my grandma, and my older sister and then proceeded to be ignored by my mom and grandma for the majority of the lunch. It sucked. Red Lobster is garbage, and note just in case anyone is curious: it’s a shitty move to take someone out to lunch for their birthday and then proceed to act like that person isn’t even there. [26] what time did you wake up: 10-something? Daylight savings time, UGH. It would have been 9:00! [27] what were you doing at midnight last night: Just finished watching the first episode of the new season of Samurai Jack, and spent some time on tumblr before crashing. [28] name something you cannot wait for: Season 3 of Young Justice! (I am desperately hoping they bring Eddie in.) [29] when was the last time you saw your mother: x-mas, and she was just as garbage as ever. [30] what is one thing you wish you could change about your life: That my fiance and I weren’t so damned poor and that we had a house of our own built to our specifications. (I miss having easy access to my miniature library.) [31] what are you listening to right now: At the moment just random house noises and the sound of either the washer or the dryer going. [32] have you ever talked to a person named tom: My brother-in-law (my older sister’s husband). He’s one of the best brothers-in-law ever btw. [33] something that is getting on your nerves: People bigoted and/or abusive jackasses. [34] most visited website: Tumblr and Ao3 both. [35] elementary: Was one of the poorest in the district when I went. [36] high school: Was shit when I went there (though some teachers were really good), was also one of the poorest in the district, but now has improved so much that the New York Times apparently raved about it recently. [37] college: Working on my master’s.  [38] hair color: Darkest-brown, almost black, with random silver hairs scattered throughout. (I’ve been getting white/silver hairs since I was 8, and I’ve got this pale patch of hair near my left temple that is going to look really freaking cool whenever it finally goes white or silver.) [39] long or short hair: LONG. (Down past my butt tbh.) [40] do you have a crush on someone: Nope. [41] what do you like about yourself: I like that even with all the crud I’ve been through that I still do my best to do the right thing. I also like the fact that I continuously work to get past any biases I might have. [42] piercings: NOOOOPE. [43]blood type: I don’t even know. I just know that it’s not my mom’s blood-type. [44] nickname: Just my first name, Fira. Though there is my Salish name, in which case it’d be t̓ixʷlm nc̓icn. [45] relationship status: Engaged. [46] zodiac sign: Pisces-Aries cuspal, and for Chinese-- fire tiger. [47] pronouns: jhe/jhur or they/them, either way. [48] fav tv show: I have too many tbh. [49] tattoos: Not opposed to the idea, just haven’t thought of a design that I’d want to live with for the rest of my life. [50] right or left hand: Lefty!

FIRST… [51] surgery: I don’t know. I think there was something to do with my ears when I was a baby? But that might have just been something only my older sister had to deal with. Idk. [52] piercing: Never. [53] best friend: My fiance. [54] sport: Does roughhousing with your older sibling and beating each other senseless with padded fake swords count? [55] vacation: A camping trip when I was about 7 or 8. The instance I’m thinking of I’m pretty sure I’m mixing it together in my head with another time. Maybe one of those times I was 7 and the other time I was 8. Idk. XP [56] pair of trainers: I don’t think I ever had a pair of those shoes.

RIGHT NOW… [57] eating: Nothing (I need to go get something to eat. lol) [58] drinking: Nothing (Same) [59] i’m about to: Eventually get my butt completely out of bed. [60] listening to: An obnoxious room-mate babbling in the hall (and I really wish she’d just shut up). [61] waiting for: My obnoxious room-mate who my fiance and I have dubbed ‘Alfredo-gate’ to shut up. [62] want: To not have to think about homework or the fact of how this quarter has gone down the tubes, for Alfredo-gate to shut her freaking trap, and to have a month or two to just focus on nerdy things (it’d be nice to be able to pause time). [63] get married: To my fiance, absolutely. If it were anyone else, heeeeelllll NO. [64] career: Ideally? Teaching at the college level in gender studies. If I had some classes to focus on nerdy things that’d be cool though.

WHICH IS BETTER… [65] hugs or kisses: Hugs. Kisses are weird to me. [66] lips or eyes: Eyes. Always eyes. [67] shorter or taller: Doesn’t matter. [68] older or younger: Doesn’t matter just so long as the age gap isn’t too huge. [70] nice arms or nice stomach: I don’t care. I prefer the person. [71] sensitive or loud: Sensitive. Loud can have its uses, but there is a point past which it gets to be too much. [72] hook up or relationship: Eeeeeehhhhhh... Let me put it this way--if my fiance hadn’t been as persistent as she has been (not that I mind now), then I wouldn’t be in a relationship. There’s no way in hell I would get into any sort of relationship if the other person wasn’t @radioactive-earthshine. [73] troublemaker or hesitant: A little bit of both. I have my devious streak, but I usually think through the possible consequences before doing something, just to be certain that I think it’s worth it.

HAVE YOU EVER… [74] kissed a stranger? Nope. [75] drank hard liquor? Nooooope. [76] lost glasses/contact lenses? Thankfully no. [77] turned someone down: Yeah. [78] sex on first date? Pfffft. Never even had sex. [79] broken someone’s heart? I think so, but I’m not sure. [80] had your own heart broken? Nope, unless you count some of the crap I realized when I was in my own personal hell (things like my room not actually being mine and just being the place I was ‘allowed’ to occupy, etc). [81] been arrested? Thankfully no. [82] cried when someone died? I tend to go numb first. Tears do eventually kick in, but it’s not my immediate reaction. [83] fallen for a friend? I’m engaged to my fiance... who is my best friend... who I’ve known since high school... and who I love so much that despite being flamingly ACE and ARO (yes in all caps on both of those, I would be amazed if there was anyone more painfully ace and aro than I am), I am going to marry. If that’s not ‘falling for a friend’ then I’m awfully damned close.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN… [84] yourself? Most of the time. [85] miracles? Idk [86] love at first sight? Eeeeehhhhhh.... Debatable. [87] Santa Claus? The actual historical figure, yeah. [88] kiss on the first date? For me, no. For others, depends on the people involved. [89] angels?  Nnnnnnnyyyyyyeeeehhhhnnnnn.... Iiiiiiii dunno. This is one of those things for me of ‘I don’t know if it exists or not but if I saw it then I wouldn’t deny its existence.’

OTHER… [90] current best friend’s name: Angela. [91] eye color: Hazel green. [92] favorite movie: It depends on my mood, but for the moment I’m going to say the ‘80s movie Enemy Mine.
